IMPORTANT 04/02/2020 : STATE OF GENETIC RESEARCH ON BIRDSHOT DISEASE - HORUS BIRDSHOT

I spoke yesterday with Professor Brézin from APHP COCHIN in Paris (France), about the research we launched 18 months ago.I remind you that the latter was implemented in several phases:1 / The constitution of a shortage of blood, which is now made up of more than 500 samples, which makes it the largest research base in the world. This bank was stored at the Reims University Hospital, with the approval of Pr COHEN.2 / Find a laboratory likely to be interested in this study. It was found in the United States.3 / Transfer the blood samples so that they can be sequenced (DNA sequencing consists in determining the sequence of nucleotides for a given DNA fragment. The DNA sequence contains the information necessary for living things to survive and reproduce. Determining this sequence is therefore useful both for research into how organisms live and for applied subjects. In medicine it can be used to identify, diagnose and potentially find treatments for genetic diseases). This was completed at the end of 2019.4 / We are therefore in the last phase, that is, the analysis of these sequencing, in order to find anomalies that would allow us to find a mode of functioning of the disease.Once the mode of initiation or functioning of the disease is detected, this may give rise to clinical studies on possible medicalizations, and to be determined.I would also like to thank our friend, brilliant scientist from Utrecht, Jonas KUIPER, for his publication on the birdshot which you gave the title given below by Professor Brézin (I had already published it several months ago), his study , carried out in the Netherlands on a sample of 84 patients, will be a very important basis for the analysis that will be made now, on our 500 recently sequenced samples.

I'm giving you the last email that Professor Brézin sent me:

“We are in the midst of analyzing the results.In particular, we compare our data with that obtained by the team of Dr Jonas Kuiper (Netherlands) and reported in the article below:(Functionally distinct ERAP1 and ERAP2 are a hallmark of HLA-A29- (Birdshot) Uveitis. Kuiper JJW, Setten JV, Devall M, Cretu-Stancu M, Hiddingh S, Ophoff RA, Missotten TOAR, Velthoven MV, Den Hollander AI, Hoyng CB, James E, Reeves E, Cordero-Coma M, Fonollosa A, Adán A, Martín J, Koeleman BPC, Boer JH, Pulit SL, Márquez A, Radstake TRDJ.Hum Mol Genet. 2018 Dec 15; 27 (24): 4333-4343.)We are interested in several genetic sites outside of HLA-A29 which could play a favorable role in the development of the disease.2020 should be an exciting year ...Sincerely, "Antoine Brézin"2020 should therefore give us the first essential indications on the functioning and triggering of the birdshot, and this, in order to be able, as quickly as possible, to find a solution to our ills….Sincerely,Sylvain.

September 3, 2019, genetic research on the birdshot disease is about to give its first results

VERY IMPORTANT: INFO HORUS BIRDSHOT -September 3, 2019, genetic research on the birdshot disease is about to give its first results -At the end of 2018, I announced that we had concluded agreements with an American laboratory and that all this required several phases:

1 / repatriate the 500 blood samples from Reims to Paris2 / transfer to a particular storage tank3 / Agree on the research protocol with the labporatoire / Transfer the samples to the United States4 / Sequencing of these 500 samples5 / Analyze the results of this sequencing, which is the longest and most difficult process.

I exchanged yesterday with Professor Brézin on this subject, and I am happy to confirm that the 500 samples have been sequenced, and that we now begin the analysis and conclusions.This research should provide us with insights into future treatments, at least hopefully reasonably. However, you know that the disease does not have only genetic factors (only 95% of the patients are HLA-A29 +) but this must logically make things progress considerably.I will keep you informed of future essential information on the subject.Sincerely,

April 18 2019 - about research

I was yesterday with Prof. Brézin at AP-HP Cochin.The news that I received for my personal case is rather positive, but we have also dealt with different topics concerning our illness, the actions of the association and the AP-HP:1 / Concerning the generic research that we launched the process at the end of 2018. We are currently finalizing the delivery of blood and DNA samples, with a concern for retention tank quality. We will therefore have to buy new holding tanks in order to transport them safely. This is a real problem that will have to be resolved quickly, with the support of everyone.A second phase, which is purely administrative, is currently being validated: the property and protocol agreements between the AP-HP, the University of Paris Descartes and the American laboratory. This is a mandatory phase as part of an international search process.Thus, as soon as these different "technical" concerns are resolved, we can begin the last part of this long process leading to the analysis of the genome of the patients, and, above all, their interpretation.So this is a very positive point, even if you will agree with me, we are not going fast enough. Thus, and international research has built a scientific-administrative maze whose pangs are quite depressing!So we can hopefully have some results in the next few months, and I will keep you personally informed.2 / Financial action with the AP-HP: With the Brézin pr we have allowed to unlock funding (limited but existing) to pay part of the tanks of retention which I spoke to you above, but also to finalize a position of research assistant in a firm way. So we will have, as well, a direct interlocutor between the various services.3 / Birdshot and Rheumatoid Spondylitis: A study was done using all AP-HP internists and we can now assume in a reasonable way (I use these terms voluntarily) that there is no relationship between the birdshot and other associated autoimmune diseases, including APS. In fact, there is no difference between the average of the non-sick people of birdshot and the latter with regard to the additional diseases which could be associated, the rates of SPA with the patients of the birdshot and those with the non-patients are the same, on a significant sample of several hundred people.4 / Following the work done on listing all the patients in the world through the list of hospitals we have set up, I informed Professor Brézin that we had that very few (see not at all) cases in different geographical areas, such as Asia, Africa (apart from South Africa). It seems clear that what we call "the Caucasian type" (or, without seeing any racist clumsiness: the white man's disease) is, obviously, one of the criteria for determining the birdshot.Of course, we've talked about things and others during this visit, and of course, about something that, at first sight, has nothing to do with that, by which I mean, the fire of the cathedral Our Lady (Indeed the hospital is not far for our foreign friends). And it is precisely on this subject that I wished to say a few words.This is of course a "historic" disaster, and if it is the "zero" point of calculating distances in France, it is also somewhere, the zero point of our cultural history.The fact that there is such a national and international mobilization on the fact of rebuilding it as soon as possible is a beautiful thing and reassuring as to the realization of everyone's awareness of the fact that beyond its cultural significance it first represents a clear sign of the human genius of the time.The hundreds of millions of euros offered in 24h for this reconstruction make me a little afraid, and unfortunately will not go into other sectors that also need it. Also, my dear friends, I urge you not to forget us, and to forget the containes of associations law 1901 which fight as bitter (you can believe me !!) to try to harvest, here and there, the few euros that make that we can painfully survive! We would have to stop the activity completely and leave all actions in place for 9 years now.We always need you!I do not want to "race" to find funding and donations, but rely on all of us to finalize the essential research that will help us, help our children and all future generations.- Thank you for your donations if you can- Thank you for sharing information on your social networks- Thank you to put a "I like" a comment on the posts to not have the impression that everything I do goes in the wild and slips on the web ...- Thank you for your actions if you wish to doI am at your disposal for any action you wish to carry out.The "MUR" of the Facebook page is open to all, you can talk to it if you wish, from the moment it relates to the disease of course ...)I wish us a good cure!Friendly yourSylvain

research on the disease of birdshot ahead in 2018 - a big step forward!

HORUS BIRDSHOT - FIRST INFO!

January 16, 2018-

I was yesterday with the Pr Brézin hospital Cochin (Paris, France) and I am pleased to announce that we have negotiated with an American company, 300 sequencing of DNA from sick of birdshot!

It's a big step forward, we worked on it for years, and even if we had already started an embryo for research with 4 genetic tests (each test costs about $ 5,000!), we can now say that the birdshot research will actually start this year.

We had for some time a stock of 300 samples valid for this action, but, not the money to finance it. Present, and current 2018, we can already move on the first sequence.This is a major step forward that offers us prospects for the coming years.

Because Yes, we should not expect results immediately, it is a study that will last months, or even years, but it will be finally launched this year!I will keep you abreast of the progress of the things as you go along.

OCTOBER 8, 2018: RESEARCH IN GENETIC FOR BIRDSHOT AHEAD WAS APPROACHING!

Monday, October 8, 2018: yesterday I was, yesterday, with the Pr Monnet in Cochin Hospital and I have confirmation that the first part of the procedures put in place for the sequencing of the genome of 350 patients Birdshot, have started successfully.The first was to find a lab that could make us this work, it is made formally. The second to repatriate all of our bank with the blood of our samples of the sick of the birdshot,'s now done it. The third phase will begin shortly with, we hope all and all results allowing us to see the future with a little more serenity.

This web site is dedicated to the birdshot disease. blinding disease.

Welcome all,.

My name is Sylvain, I am 50 years old and I have the Birdshot type retinochoidite.It's a disease orphan blinding. In 6 years, I have lost 3/4 of my vision...

I am an officer of companies, painter specialized in portraits and high-level sportsman. This disease has been detected to me during a trip to South Africa and I have no certainty about the future of my eyes.

I created this association in order to help our scientists to discover a treatment to treat this disease. Indeed I wouldn't end up blind without thinking that I have tried everything to cure me.

If progress is being made through our action, then I can say that I have not fully served has nothing in this society.

We already have the support of personalities such as Mr. and Mrs. Sarkozy, Mrs Line Renaud, Mr Gilbert Montagné, Ms. Chantal Ladesou.

We have especially accreditation of hospitals taken through the Pr Brézin hospital Cochin, the Professor Cohen, immulologue, as well as the Pr Levinson of UCLA.

This site and this association has also been created to allow people with this orphan disease answers their questions, they could have names has contact addresses for health care, the names of teachers who are members of honour of this association in the best hospitals of France and the world, the best care as well as all the accessories that can improve their lives (glasses, filter glasses, specific hardware...). It is a disease that can eventually be expensive! Because everything is not refunded.

I hope that we will find as well a solution to our ills...

I encourage you to go on facebook (link alongside) to regroup and discuss

OPERATION trip in BIRDSHOT, (follow-up on our facebook page)50 most beautiful sites to see in the world, but with the view of a person with the type birdshot choroiditis, or disease of birdshot.

As part of the awareness of the disease, it seemed interesting to involve all our friends in the life of a person with a birdshot, which would have the chance to travel the world.Of course, the photos will be the most representative possible of this quevoit this last.I would ask you therefore good see share as possible these images, and this, in order to inform as many people as possible.This operation will also campaign donations to the research assistance (we are an association law 190 approved entitlement to tax deductions, so be generous!).
